Champions at PAC


It’s not every day that a champion emerges.  However, we have TWO home-town, home-grown champions in our midst here at PAC.

Every day, Bart Myers and Cork Kelly dive into the clear waters of our competition pool to perform their daily workouts.  Each have set individual goals for themselves, which typically include training for their next event.

This summer it was the Senior Olympics.  Bart competed in the Wyoming Senior Olympics that took place in Sheridan.  Cork competed in the Kearney, Nebraska Senior Games. 


As you can see, each came home with indications of the success of all that discipline and diligence in training that readied them to compete against many swimmers in their respective age groups.

Bart swam the 1500 meter freestyle race and won bronze; the 50 meter freestyle to win silver; and the 500, 200, 100 and 25 meter freestyle races where he took the Gold.

Cork swam the 50 meter back and freestyle races and won silver medals.  In the 50, 100, and 200 meter breaststroke races, Cork took the Gold and thinks he may have set new records in his 80-84 age group!

PAC is very proud of these two loyal patrons and salutes the example they set for all of us to stay active, set goals and achieve!

As its been said, “Keep on swimming….!”


Congratulations Bart and Cork….and thank you for continuing to inspire us each and every day!
